“ND Focus – Elia’s networking days for Executives is an innovative, extremely useful format, with all the networking opportunities of other conferences but with zero distraction as it’s really ‘focused’ on target audience specific interests. I really enjoyed it.”

“I always find it very motivating to share experiences and knowledge with people who on the whole have the same goal as me – to do better business and make being involved in the translation industry a meaningful and rewarding lifestyle. This event exceeded my expectations by far in this aspect!”
